Monoatomic eh? One doesn’t want monoatomic hydrogen going into his vehicle, as it bonds with the metal and weakens it. Diatomic is what you want for burning in your engine.
Glass wool is much better than Bronze wool
the kind of stuff used for insulation on water tanks and in lofts, yellow in colour
it doesn’t need to be wet.If you pack the tube with some fine sponge and put a wad off the glass wool at either end it works fine.
wear gloves when handling glass wool as it will irritate your skin.
By any chance is that fitting you can’t remember the name of a 1/4″ Flare x 1/4″ FIP?
If it is then you’ll find it in a pink wrapper at HD or Lowe’s as A-80.
that’s the whole idea of using it, is to prevent flashbacks. make sure it’s damp prior to use as an extra precaution. you can use water or vinegar, just wouldn’t use whiskey or anything….:D
may i suggest you use a ceramic tube to avoid the heating problems, should be easily available as a tube with a thread at both ends. you might have to get different sized brass fittings to suit.
great work mate! keep it up, the less we rely on fossil fuels the better.
Any chance you could send me a parts list?
Also, I have tried unsuccessfully to make the HHO cells – they ALWAYS make too little HHO. Could you send me that info as well?

thank you … nicely done … a good reliable torch made from materials most anyone can get hands on …
I think if you added up your cost of materials and charged as little $15 per hour for the time it takes you to gather the parts, assemble the device, put it in a box, take it to the post office and send it out, you would be surprised … that little gem could easily be a $100 widget …

The great thing about a hydrogen torch is that, at least in my experience, the metal itself never gets more than warm.

Try the F-16 Pulse King which can be purchased on EBAY. Your flame will be monoatomic hydrogen. What a difference

Now I need to find the M61 or M6 tap.

By using that wool, is there a good chance that there won’t be a flashback?
